Details

The current owner has been reducing opening hours on her path towards retirement 

but is still able to pay herself a salary from just 19 hours per week and only 28 covers.

This restaurant is fully licensed to open all day, every day with a total of 58 covers 

which demonstrates the huge potential awaiting a new owner.

Premium:  The low premium of £40,000 includes all kitchen and bar equipment, 

furniture, fixtures and fittings plus substantial goodwill from a loyal clientele.

The decor is in excellent condition making this a walk-in opportunity.

The outgoing owner has pledged to provide 6 months of support and advice to 

the new owner should they want it. 

Rarely do you find an opportunity with so much support available to the new owner.

Lease:  7 year Fully Repairing and Insuring Lease at a rent of £2,200 pcm 

              First year rent discounted to £1,800 pcm

              First 2 months rent-free.

Rent reviews at the end of year 4 and year 7.

The landlord is open to discussions and negotiations concerning the lease terms.

Rateable Value:  2026/2027 - £16,750 - estimated rates payable of £6,398.50

which is £533.21 per month.  However, discuss this with the landlord as there may be

reliefs available.
